Is "no commercial spam" no longer a reason for a hide, or am I just not seeing it on the list?

1. I still get jury requests for commercial spam.

2. Would you check the alert button and see if it's still showing up for you?

[Irish_Dem]

3. No I don't see commercial spam on alert list.

[Scrivener7]

4. Thank you for checking! I wonder why it was removed.

7. I just got jury duty for commercial spam about two days ago.

So it is still going to jury?

8. Weird.

5. I don't see it either. Maybe post or du mail EarlG

I'd be curious to know too.

6. Thank you for looking!

9. We changed it so that alert only works on new members

with fewer than 100 posts.

Prior to the change, too many established members were getting posts removed for posting things that weren’t commercial spam. As long as it’s not overdone, it is permitted for established members to promote their own products and services — especially in the DU Marketplace forum. The rule is really intended to stop the kind of spam that’s produced by spambots and paid spammers. Nobody who is here to participate honestly on DU ever posts that kind of thing. (If they ever do, it can be sent to me directly to take a look at.)

Glad I was able to answer your question
